i read somewhere that they did as part of the upgraded performance package, but others may know for sure... but who knows over the years someone could have changed it trying to be cheap and save a buckConfused

Is a kit available for the 351cj engine? Waldron seems to have a kit...will this fit a 72-73 351cj 4sp?

Thanks...

Yeah, just a flanged end that mates to the manifold, nothing out of the ordinary for the CJ. 
 
Are you trying to do a 100% correct restoration?  Waldron's exahaust is about as close to stock as you can get, but it is expensive and the shipping overseas would be crazy.  I wouldn't even ship that to Canada, not worth it IMO.
 
Do you have exhaust shops in Denmark that can make exhaust from scratch?  I would just get some good pictures of the Waldron system and have a local exhaust shop make a copy of the factory system.  It's a pretty basic system so any competent exhaust shop should be able to make it.  This would be a lot cheaper than ordering something from the US.  The 1970-71 Torino exhaust tips are reproduced and were used on the '72s as well if you want to get the correct tips.  Summit has cheaper options that look the same though, which is the route I am going to go.

Yes...maybe...but, let me tell you...NOTHING is cheap in Denmark....nothing! 99 out of 100 times parts are cheaper in the US..even after customs in Denmark! Sad really.

Please see picture...will this `classic` exhaust hook up to 72/73 cj manifolds?

Thanks....I guess I need to know if the 351(2v) has the same exhaust manifold as 351(4v).....or is there a slight difference.? I have tried to google some pictures of each type of manifold...are they in fact different?.

Maybe it is best to wait until I see the car with my own eyes...Wink

2V and 4V exhaust manifolds are very different,

but the pipes that connect to them may be the same?

or different .... here's a few pics of manifolds

Yes almost all cars were dual exhaust by factory, my friend had this car and that was also a dual exhaust, then he sold that and bought a truck now he is using that truck for towing services near me, and have a plan to get few more for his business.

As stated above, all 1972-74 Q-codes were dual exhaust.  No other engines left the factory with dual exhaust during that time, except for the 429/460 PI engines, and the late 1973 to 1974 460 cars.

I went ahead and bought a 72 Torino dual exhaust kit over at Waldron. 750bucks shipped to Denmark.

Should be awesome! Will post a few pics when it arrives.

Yeah, that is actually a pretty decent price especially with overseas shipping!  I have heard nothing but good about Waldon. Make a video when you get it installed so we can hear the exhaust.
